#4 - Graphic 45 Card Extravaganza - Winnie & Walter

Hi, Friends......

I am back with #4 of my Graphic 45 Card Extravaganza where I went wild with my Graphic 45 Precious Memories collection and made SIX cards!!! I love this collection for making baby cards.....like this one for a brand-new little boy. I made it with a couple of challenges in mind:

1. Winnie & Walter May Color Combo Challenge with Heather H. (ends June 9) - I noticed that the colors in the G45 papers were very similar to the lovely ones in the palette that Heather chose this time. The papers even feature roses along with the babies and mommies....just like in the inspiration photo!

2. Winnie & Walter Rerun Challenge #19: Parentville (ends May 31) - The W&W Rerun challenges are where a stamp set from
the past is featured. Shay and her design team members make cards with
this older set and she challenges us to make a card using it, also. If
we don't have the set, we can use a different W&W product to make a
card inspired by one from the design team. Fun!!! This month Shay is
actually has two stamp sets to rerun:

I don't have either of the W&W Parentville/Extras sets, so I drew inspiration from Kelly's cards where she made beautiful clusters of hearts. You can see her cards HERE. Instead of hearts, I made some sweet clusters of stamped and die-cut stars (from glittery blue scraps...YAY!) and Nuvo drops. (I am still getting the hang of using the drops, so bear with me!!) I think the card turned out super-adorable!!

Another sweet baby card, but with a totally different look. I love the way you got creative with the collection and combined embellishments from your stash. The stars are wonderful with the plaid and a big pat on the back for breaking out the Nuvo drops!
